Homefront vs N.O.V.A. 2
Homefront
Homefront lets you join the Resistance that's fighting against the bitter, ruthless and overwhelming armies of the Greater Korea Republic for the freedom of an occupied USA using guerrilla tactics. Experience an explosive first-person shooter gameplay as well as immersive vehicular combat in addition to experiencing the compelling story of the devastating cost of war penned by renowned author John Milius through interactive cut scenes. The graphics in the Homefront is also very well-done, presenting a bleak-looking landscape of abandoned and ruined structures, shopping malls-turned-detention centers, and walled towns filled with zombie-like people who just shamble around while the invaders stood guard with their rifles at the ready. Interestingly, Homefront even provides players with a large-scaled multiplayer mode where armies of different sides clash in an epic combat, though there aren't enough players around to get a match going.So, although the multiplayer aspect of the game is literally dead, the gameplay might be a tad bit too linear (invisible walls and the like) and that there are some glitches and bugs, Homefront still has an amazing campaign that will see you fighting for the independence of the USA against its Greater Korea Republic oppressors. It is worth the purchase, especially if you can get it at a discount.
N.O.V.A. 2
N.O.V.A. 2 is the exciting sequel to a pretty popular FPS game series. Set in a time 6 years after humanity has successfully repelled the Judger invaders, another more devious, telepathic alien race, the Volterites, arrived under a banner of peace but had brainwashed a majority of the human race into thinking they are some kind of deity who had come to create a Utopian world that humans deserved.Join Kal Wardin once again as he tries to fight to free humans from the corrupting mind control the aliens have imposed on mankind, reunite humanity to rise up against the Volterites and potentially find out what these aliens have in plan for the humans they control.
N.O.V.A. 2 basically retained everything that had made the original game so popular among fans of the FPS genre. Although it's not exactly an innovative sequel, it is still a pretty nice addition to the franchise and well, you get to enjoy a brand-new storyline.
